Trusted by the Experts:

“Gripple bracing and tensioning systems helped us install 600‑foot trellis runs faster and more efficiently. The reduced labor and easy tensioning saved time and kept the project moving across our large hop operation.”
“I traditionally turned down net fence projects because I didn’t want to wrap the wires. These Gripple’s have now changed that; I will not do another fence project without them.”
